A Complete Guide to Custom Stage and Lighting Rigging Solutions
From custom truss sizes to combined truss-plus-layher packages: how factory-direct customization works at AUS Stage Equipment.
Most event projects do not fit a catalog. Venues have odd spans, rigs have specific trim heights, and budgets have constraints. This guide explains how custom stage and rigging solutions actually work at a factory-direct manufacturer — what is customizable, and what you should send to get a usable quotation.
Custom Sizes Are the Standard Offer, Not an Exception
AUS produces custom aluminum stage truss in box, triangle and ladder styles, with standard sections from 250×250 mm up to 600×1200 mm and lengths of 0.5–4 m — custom sizes available as part of the standard factory-direct offer. The same flexibility applies to layer stage decks: 1×2 m or 1.22×2.44 m modules, adjustable from 0.4 m to 2 m, or customized.
We need portable stage platforms for wedding and small live shows, anti-slip top and adjustable height are required.
That inquiry maps directly onto the platform system: modules from 1×1 m to 1.22×2.44 m, plywood anti-slip tops, height adjustable from 0.4 m to 2 m, modular fast setup — the exact configuration wedding and small-show producers ask for by name.
One Package for the Whole Rig
Can you supply both aluminum lighting truss and layher stage frame as one package for our event project?
Yes — and supplying one package is the cleaner engineering path. When truss, layher structures and platforms come from the same factory, the material specifications line up (6061-T6 aluminum; Q235/Q355 hot-galvanized steel), the certifications cover the whole delivery, and one team answers for the complete structure. AUS manufactures all three product lines under one roof of more than 3,000 square meters.
How to Start a Custom Project
Send three things: a drawing or sketch of the structure (even a rough one), the dimensions that are fixed, and what you will hang or build on it. AUS responds with a configuration matched to the standard and custom size ranges. With more than 10 years in the industry and customers in more than 150 countries, the factory runs 24/7 online service — time zones are not a barrier.
